Long Distance Marriage

long-distance marriage I sat on the terrace, thinking of my children and their mother who had lived in a pool behind the houses She they became adults had begged me to set her free, I relented drove her to the coast, and saw her jump with joy Our four children were obese full of blubber had tiny arms and feet, which they gradually lost as they became adult I gave our children to their mother and saw my family swim to the Azores, where the sea is mild and there is plenty of food. I was on a ship when I passed the island they came alongside flippers waving. Do you know them, the captain asked. Yes, they are my children with their mother “You are mad,” he said. Indeed, but that is the price one has to pay for loving a dolphin.
